Sword Art Online, Namco’s Psuedo MMORPG, Has AI Allies Roaming On The Field

Namco Bandai is making a new pseudo MMORPG based on the upcoming Sword Art Online anime series. Sword Art Online: Infinity Moment drops players in an entirely offline virtual world. You will have NPCs as allies and it’s possible to partner with characters walking around on the game’s fields or dungeons.

Partner characters join in during combat and will learn player’s attack patterns. You can also develop partner characters by picking responses when you talk to them.

Well i just wanna know is it Dark story setting? i like dark story if the setting is right… for me .hack story is kinda misplaced though i kinda follow .hack and The world game could be banned for such problematic game Lol

It has its….moment, but overall its not as grimdark, than say, f/z. (Well, so far anyway. @ Vol 2 & 3 at the moment)

Interesting. I can’t really think of any other franchise except .Hack that tried to emulate a MMORPG-world as it’s game-world, so it’s not like there’s a lot of competition out there. Will be keeping an eye on this one.

Psuedo MMORPG? This has extreme potential. I just pray they don’t have your typical MMO style battle system like Xenoblade or FF12 (Don’t mean to demean them, I just personally dislike that style). They should keep it an ARPG like .hack//.

If they really want to make it a genuine MMO experience in a pseudo MMO world I fully expect a couple of NPCs to be spamming general chat about items they’re trying to sell, and a few more that never get out of the fire. :p

I hope to god you aren’t stuck playing as that generic shota hero-boy thing.
